Testimonials

Nancy is one of the most dedicated, honest, hardworking public servants that I have had the opportunity to work with. She takes the time to learn about the issue at hand, form a well-rounded opinion by hearing both sides of the story and made a decision based on what is right, not what she is told.

On a professional level, I have seen Mayor Backus at work and I am always impressed how she empathizes and relates to others. Her demonstrated ability to listen and understand the varying perspectives, whether from a neighbor, a concerned citizen or a contractor makes her a valuable asset to the City of Auburn. She quickly grasps complex situations and offers alternatives solutions or viewpoints that have not been considered. I am impressed with her problem solving abilities and how she can get …David A.

Nancy has a talent for dissecting complicated issues, listening carefully to all sides and defining what is best for Auburn. She excels at encouraging citizen involvement and guiding people through the sometimes challenging governmental process.

I’ve been a resident of Auburn since 2002. My oldest daughter went to the same schools, and often had classes with, Nancy’s daughter, Lucky. Which means we crossed paths more than once. I’ve seen her work hard for this city, in both the political arena and hands on. She hears there’s a problem, like homelessness, and she works to a solution. It may not happen overnight, but she keeps at it until it’s done. I’ll be happy to vote for her in November, and hope you will as well. (Author, resident, s…KateMarie Collins

My wife and I will be voting for the person who believes in our great 125-year-old city. We need a consensus builder, a person who will stand with the citizens of Auburn and a person who will listen to the people of Auburn – and Nancy Backus is the qualified candidate to be Auburn’s mayor. (Former Auburn Mayor, former associate superintendent of the Auburn School District, citizen, friend)Charles A. Booth

I met Nancy professionally years ago and after seeing how much she cares about the city of Auburn and its citizens I was truly amazed. I deal with many cities’ mayors and I don’t always get the same feeling. People of Auburn do your homework on her accomplishments and you’ll see she is the mayor of choice for you.

You won’t find a more proud daughter! 🙂 Way to go, Momma Backus! I was too young to vote for you the first time and I will be honored to check your name for your second term. I love you! (Daughter, citizen, supporter)Lucky Backus

I am voting for Nancy, because she is a wonderful asset to this community. I wouldn’t want anyone else as Mayor; she has the experience (10 years) as Councilmember and Deputy Mayor and now OUR current mayor! She also has the financial background (20-25 years) to run a corporation which that is what the City of Auburn is. Vote for Nancy Backus; a Mayor who is willing to Back Us as a community! (Citizen, friend, Auburn School District employee)Kyle Carrier

I have lived next door to Nancy and her family for the past 14 years and feel fortunate to call her a friend. Nancy, her husband Kemon, and her daughter Alexis (Lucky) are some of the finest people you will ever meet and have made our city proud as our ‘first family.’ (Citizen, friend, supporter)Dan Diesso

I am fully endorsing you for Auburn Mayor as you have proven over the past four years that you have the passion, competence, integrity and endurance to continue to fight for Auburn. I believe in you and so should the rest of the Auburn community! Cast your vote for Nancy Backus! (Community leader, former Auburn School Board Director, resident, friend, supporter)Janice Nelson
